Veilrunners Map Cards

Veilrunners Map Cards – Tactical Exploration for the Edge of Space

NOTE: This is not a complete game. This is an add-on for the Veilrunners RPG available here.

Veilrunners Map Cards bring exploration into the physical game space, creating a fast, cinematic way to visualize mission sites during play. Each tarot-sized card contains multiple interconnected rooms, allowing players to assemble derelict ships, alien ruins, research stations, and hostile installations into a living tactical layout as their crew explores deeper into danger. Cards are drawn and placed as new areas are revealed, gradually forming the full mission site while keeping navigation clear and intuitive on the tabletop.

Every room is marked with tactical range icons that designate how weapon distance bands function within that space, allowing engagement ranges to be read directly from the map without tracking extra measurements. The system integrates seamlessly with Veilrunners’ simple combat rules, providing clarity without sacrificing speed of play.

The Map Card set includes four erasable markers — red, blue, green, and black — for marking doors, cleared rooms, objectives, hazards, encounter triggers, and other temporary mission details directly onto the cards without permanently altering them. This eliminates the need for dry-erase mats or separate grid maps while keeping the evolving battlefield fully visible to everyone at the table.

Designed for solo and GM-less cooperative play, the Map Cards enhance immersion and tactical decision-making while remaining quick to set up, easy to reset, and compact for storage between sessions.
